Our Belgian White Ale is modeled after the original Belgian Witbiers brewed in monasteries during the early 14th century. The soft notes of citrus and spice are topped with a light fluffy head that finishes clean and crisp. This all natural ale is our latest seasonal brew, perfect for lounging at lake-side or celebrating at trails end...

Bottle from Half Time. Pours hazy light gold with a fizzy white head. Aromas of yeast/spice and citrus zest. Near med body - til the carb leaves. It’s very citrusy, and there’s spice. Maybe cardamom. Good for the style.

blonde colored body, fast-dying white head. Aroma of bananas, cloves, yeast and a strong amount of coriander seed. Medium-bodied; Aftertaste shows more spice, a touch of anise and a little watery ending. Overall, a pretty nice wit, not top-notch but WAY better then you will find on tap at most places.

Yellow lemon pour. Head dissipated in seconds. Lemon spice in the nose, faint hint of coriander. Lots of lemon peel in the nose. Very dominant. Some citrus.

not bad, a little too "candy-ish" for me. you can taste the difference more so in this than any other style of a good and bad brewer. im not saying long trail is a bad brewer, they make some very enjoyable beers, but a style like this sets the bar. compared to the better wittes out there, its like long trail added artificial flavors to make up for the lack of taste. like after they tasted the first batch, it tasted like blue moon, and they went, "crap, we need to add something to this" the flavor is synthetically good. after a few it gets annoying.

Pours hazy pale gold into a shaker. Bright white head quickly recedes to skim surface. Mild lemon and wheat aromas. Crisp lemon joy from front to back with mild wheat added in the finish.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy pale yellow color with a large white soapy head. The aroma was artificial lemon and cardamom. The flavor was dry, a little tart and spicy with notes of cardamom and coriander. There was a citrus and cardboard undertone. Medium finish. Medium body. Ok.

A decent American interpretation of the Belgian style. Floral nose. Spicy, citrusy flavor. I would drink it again.

Mildly citrus aroma. Beautiful sparkling rolling appearance. Very appetizing. Looks like gingerale with fine streams of effervescence. Friendly first taste impressions. Like-able. Very good carbonatio, citrusy bite. Has some farmy attitude and wet hat too. Toward the end of the bottle there is a swirling sediment from the bottom. Virtually no bitterness but there is a subtle industrial background lurking in there. Overall quite a good experience.

Nice hazy golden blonde coloured body with a perfectly sized, albeit fast-dying white head. Aroma of bananas, cloves, yeast and a super-strong amount of coriander seed. Medium-bodied; Spicy taste up front with wheat, malt, yeast, oranges (curacao) and a little nutmeg thrown in. Aftertaste shows more spice, a touch of anise and a little watery ending. Overall, a pretty nice wit, not amazing, but good from the Northeast. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased at Oliver’s Beverage on 22-December-2008, sampled at home in Washington on 14-January-2009.

A milky opaque yellow wit with a thin white head. A lightly skunky wild herbal aroma, with odd sulfury notes. In mouth, fresh and creamy wit, rathe rlight and, in the end, non-descript. Sampled at Vermont Brewfest July 19 2008.
